Answer 3

To decide whether to use "was" or "were," you need to consider the subject of each sentence and whether it is singular or plural.

1. Your dad was repairing the car. In this sentence, the subject "dad" is singular, so the correct form is "was."

2. My friends were watching the game on TV. In this sentence, the subject "friends" is plural, so the correct form is "were."

3. The children were brushing their teeth. In this sentence, the subject "children" is plural, so the correct form is "were."

4. We were reading a book about Australia. In this sentence, the subject "we" is plural, so the correct form is "were."

Corrected sentences:

1. Your dad was repairing the car.
2. My friends were watching the game on TV.
3. The children were brushing their teeth.
4. We were reading a book about Australia.
